A Nolan Show investigation has revealed staggering figures of wages being paid to locum doctors - in the last year £32.3million was spent. The top outlay to one doctor for one day's work was £2,400 for a 12-hour shift - that's £200 per hour. And another doctor was paid more than £15,000 for one week's work. Why is so much being spent on locum doctors and can the NHS afford figures like this? #BBCNolan
